The association between these SNPs and the principal insulin resistance and obesity markers was also studied, and we found that SNP rs769214 is associated with significantly higher weight, body mass index (BMI) Z-score and adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (A-FABP), as well as with a higher plasma insulin concentration (not significant), without any observed effect on erythrocyte CAT activity. This evidence concerns the gene FABP4 and obesity disorder.
